“No, i know best who is most suitable for me, and I’ve never loved her. The woman 1 love has always been you,” Jing Chenxi declared passionately.
“Now that we’re both single, free from any commitments, this is an opportunity fate has given us. Ning Ning, please don’t reject me so hastily. Take some time to think it over. In the years ahead, I’ll make every effort to ensure your happiness, as if you were a queen. Trust me, I have the capability and the confidence.”
Shen Ning stood there, stunned.
Any woman would have been deeply moved by such a heartfelt confession from an exceptional man. But she couldn’t.
“Mr. Jing, it’s been so many years. If we could have been together, we would have by now. It’s just not possible between us. Please let go.” She quickly and resolutely declined, her face displaying her determination, then turned and hurried away.
Jing Chenxi watched her retreating figure in a daze, his eyes filled with a painful, concealed turmoil.
What had he done wrong? Why was she always unwilling to entrust her heart to him?
In the darkness, Li Zhenting stood beside his luxury car, observing the commotion between the man and woman in the distance. His eyes gleamed with a sinister coldness.
After a while, he saw Shen Ning rush outside, extinguishing her cigarette and then getting into a taxi. Li Zhenting crushed his cigarette butt, turned, and got into his own car.
If this woman hadn’t set her sights on his son, he would have let her go. The three billion dollars were never meant to be repaid by her.
After all, when they divorced six years ago, she left with almost nothing, and he had always wanted to compensate her. Moreover, the three billion dollars had nothing to do with her.
That day, he had deliberately provoked her, but even he couldn’t explain why he did it.
But now, she was trying to interfere with his son. When Dingding saw her today, the intimacy between them made him feel uneasy.
He had to find out what she was up to.
After a while, Shen Ning hailed a taxi and got in.
He followed closely behind.
Half an hour later, the taxi came to a halt in front of an apartment building.
He glanced up; it was Zhengsheng apartments!
For some inexplicable reason, the apartment seemed oddly familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
His thoughts were interrupted when Shen Ning got out of the cab and paid the fare.
He promptly parked his car by the roadside and followed her.
Shen Ning entered the apartment, casting a quick glance at her home, shrouded in darkness. It appeared that her two little darlings were already fast asleep.
She couldn’t help but smile; her heart warmed at the thought. With a light step, she made her way towards her home.
Suddenly, it seemed like there were footsteps behind her. She turned and was taken aback.
A man’s figure was approaching from not far away, and even in the dim light, she could distinguish him with just one glance. It was Li Zhenting!
This was bad. How had this man tracked her here?
What did he want?
In an instant, she felt her body break into a cold sweat, every nerve in her body tensed.
Meanwhile, Li Zhenting had entered the complex, scanning the limited greenery before him. It suddenly struck him that he had indeed been here before. It was when he had escorted Xiaoxiao home.
Unbelievably, Shen Ning lived in the same apartment complex as Xiaoxiao. This was something he hadn’t anticipated.
As he was momentarily lost in thought, Shen Ning spotted him.
He decided to approach her with brisk strides.
“What are you doing here?” Shen Ning stared at him with wariness in her eyes.
Seeing her tense demeanor, Li Zhenting couldn’t help but smile slyly. “I’ve obviously been tracking you.”
“Tracking me?” Shen Ning scoffed. “I’m penniless and powerless. There’s nothing about me that should interest a wealthy tycoon like you..”
